Man, just love, love, love this show! Jerry's guitar in the "Playin'", as my friend says, growls. "Darkstar" is elegant, spacey, bouncy, captivating - perfect for a journey into ones' mind or thoughts in a very positive way. Great Matrix! Thanks for taking the time to do it. And agreed with previous post, I enjoy hearing people's excitement on the Matrix. It brings a fun energy. Someone's mind was blown and yes, I too wonder where they are today. It would be great to hear from them. Love, love, love this show... :]

What a negative comment, brother. This is such a great version of Dark Star, and it's upsetting that these guys are experiencing one of the greatest moments ever in their life and all you can do is shit on them.
I sit back and wonder, are they still alive? What are they doing on this cold January night? Those fellow heads may have stumbled upon this same recording and said "oh my god, that's me!!" Or maybe they were too fried out to remember. Either way, just try to keep spreading good vibes. It's a good recording

The last thing I want to hear is an idiot's whistle or F ya Dark star WHOHOHO You can take your audience noise it's not for me at all

I was born on this day and so I am a little biased but this show is awesome!! Dark star>Brokedown is superb!!! Thanks guys for my birthday show....

I have searched out and listened to almost every Dark Star ever played by the band and this one remains my favorite. Why? It is positively bursting at the seams with ideas and is one of the best examples of ensemble Type II jamming that the band has ever done. The jams are much more on the rocking side of things vs. the spacey side and this is a very, very good thing to behold. The rest of the show is consistently fantastic even by 1972 standards. The Matrix mix is also one of the top-notch with an "in the room" feel that is just about perfect.

!wow----> 'Matrix' Soundboard/Audience Mix <----wow!
I love these 'Matrix' shows!
The sound is far superior to just a soundboard.
The mix sounds balanced and the GRATEFUL DEAD sound superb. Great "live" sound.
Beautiful.
Magnificent sound, I highly recommend you get all the shows that have been Matrixed...I am.
